Trident University is known for its innovative approach to online learning.
As more than 80% of Trident's student population consists of servicemen,
servicewoman, families and veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces located all over
the world, it was essential that Trident provide a truly innovative, engaging,
and reliable digital experience that could support the geographic diversity of
their existing and future students.
Additionally, with over 130,000 online visitors a month and over 7,000 active
undergrad and graduate students, Trident University needed an effective way to
engage, onboard and support their diverse and global base of students and
prospects while optimizing their staffing and resources.
Trident implemented the LivePerson platform to provide their growing number of
prospects and students from around the world with real-time online assistance
from staff and advisors.
"With LivePerson's solutions, we're able to provide personalized, real-time
support to busy students in their channel of choice, wherever they are," said
Andy Vaughn, COO of Trident University. "Many of our students are around the
world, or have limited access to a phone, so digital engagement has been a
tremendous success. We've also seen a huge reduction in call volumes to our
student hotline."
LivePerson offers an end-to-end, cloud-based engagement platform, empowering
organizations to produce compelling and measurable results while improving the
digital customer experience. Driven by a broad set of customer and business
intelligence, LivePerson's solutions are able to deliver the right level of
engagement (chat, voice, targeted offers, video chat), in the right channel,
based on a real-time understanding of each visitor's needs.
"Our ultimate goal at LivePerson is to enable meaningful connections between
organizations and their members," said Robert LoCascio, CEO and Founder,
LivePerson. "We hope that by using our technology, institutions like Trident
University can provide an exceptional digital experience to students and
support their academic endeavors, no matter where and how they are connecting
and learning."
